You don't know much about real science, do you? Real science is often dominated by "narratives," which get more ingrained with time. Things are accepted with no doubt (such as the Big Bang) because they are convenient, not because they are true. Often because they are the centerpiece of a wonderful theory. We are bogged down in nuclear science because of this, and ever more wasteful amounts of money are thrown at expensive research projects (e.g., CERN) in the hope of justifying the underlying narrative. it is pathetic.
I tip my hat to your expertise in whatever field it is. Mine happens to be space travel, and my "beliefs" are and have been tested by practice. We design things to work, and they bloody well fail to work if our "assumptions" are not the truth. So, in that department, I don't have a glass house. It is armor plate, forged by repeated experience. Sometimes the experience is traumatic; we do learn the hard way.
